My location is the south of UK, my connection is a up to 8Mb connection that I usually get 4.5Mb download speeds from other sites in the UK, France, Germany and Japan. I have noticed that some other sites in the US also gives me poor download speed too, as you can see I only get 69Kb/s from Blag server (sic).

I'm able to access the forums fine. I see on Wednesday, March 19th, you reposted one of my emails. I requested that you have users attempt to FTP from FRII:

To get some information on actual download/upload speeds, rather then latency, we suggest you try speedtest.net, there are servers in Denver (and the UK) which you can test against. You and the LUGgers can also test speeds from FRII by downloading 10meg.doc from our FTP server - ftp ftp.frii.com, login user = anonymous pass = their email address, cd /pub/support/outgoing, get '10meg.doc' - that will give an accurate representation of download speeds from FRII.

This would help immensely, as we would be able to get an idea of what download speeds are like from FRII.

If you could, have the LUGgers run the FTP download test from FRII, and then get us the results. Posting them to the forum is fine, just make sure to let us know when they're completed.

wgetting a file from FRII's ftp server gives me 200k/sec, whereas I get around 100k/sec to the blag server. This surprised me until I saw above the traceroutes and they are different in Denver--their ping times are even different.
